update: whoops, added missing \/? to regex ... basically updated regex (it's pretty thorough now, although it won't catch NAME="foo%]berry" which is pretty bizzare thing to have.)

Ya right, nothing but monks. This is the best area for PERL I have ever seen. The answers seem to just appear. Thank-you!!!

I was hoping to right in HTML::Template tags and view them in Dreamweaver compared to writing in Dreamweaver tags and converting them to HTML::Template. Skip a step and all. Any-way to do this?

That looks great. What do I have to do to add the LOOP and IF statements, or does this already do that. The filter looks universal but I don't understand the scalarref yet. Thanks again for the help, it is appreciatted more then you would ever think...

He announced it in Dreamweaver/Perl integration tools.

HTH...

And i haven't really touched it since. The problem was that even though you have tools to insert tags and see them on the screen, you don't see the interpolated values. I found that i could edit my template by hand (via vi) easier, but i still start with Dreamweaver and use it to make widgets which i insert later. In other words, i haven't found a good way to maintain my HTML::Template site with Dreamweaver, but it is still very useful to start with Dreamweaver.

MX is a funky beast of a program. The version(s) prior to MX 2004 would only work if you have a ColdFusion, ISS, or Java web server. That's it! You couldn't even edit the HTML! I quickly switched back to plain ole Dreamweaver, but the new MX 2004 version added PHP to the mix, which makes me think it could be tricked into working with plain ole Perl CGI's ... too bad my evaluation copy ran out. :( Good thing i learned vi! ;)

I don't think the user wanted help with this specific dreamweaver feature, just vanilla use of Dreamwever

I don't know of any easy solution for integrating HTML::Template and Dreamweaver. (Doesn't mean there isn't one, I just started researching this myself.)

However see Dreamweaver/Perl integration tools where I link to a page that suggests that Dreamweaver plays well with Mason.
